In the glamour world, break-ups and patch-ups are a usual thing. While some relationships last forever, some end on a bitter note and some take different paths but still remain best of friends. Unfortunately, not all love stories get a happy ending. Television's most-loved couple, Rithvik Dhanjani and Asha Negi are one such couple who, after being with one another for years, had parted ways breaking the hearts of their fans. But the couple didn’t let it affect their friendship and remained BFFs even after their breakup. (Also Read: Anushka Sharma Flaunts Baby Bump In Sun-Kissed Pictures, Her Pregnancy Glow Is Unmissable)
Rithvik Dhanjani and Asha Negi had met each other on Ekta Kapoor’s show, Pavitra Rishta and soon love had blossomed between the two. Their on-screen chemistry had turned into off-screen love and soon they had become ‘Ashvik’ for their fans. The two had never failed to surprise their fans with their adorable chemistry but reports of the duo calling it quits had shocked their fans. In April 2020, there were rumours about Rithvik and Asha being no longer together and in an interview with Pinkvilla, the latter had confirmed the same later.
And now, Rithvik Dhanjani is grabbing the headlines for his linkup rumours with actress-cum-singer, Monica Dogra. The speculations about their relationship had started when Monica shared an appreciation post for Rithvik, praising him for being an ‘incredible’ man. It was Rithvik’s comment, which raised quite a few eyebrows. Revealing how she had struck a beautiful friendship with Rithvik on Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi season 8, Monica wrote, “Coactor appreciation post. @rithvik_d and I struck up a very real friendship during #fearfactor #kkk8. I met him in the dining hall with spinach salad stuck in my teeth. I smiled at him and had a whole conversation and he didn’t even tell me. I went to the loo and came back and I was like ummmm. You didn’t wanna tell me I had a big green leaf in my front tooth this whole time?! What the hell!”
Monica tagged Rithvik as the 'light of her life' and continued her note as “He smiled his 1000 watt smile and said he wanted to be a gentleman. Throughout that season, he had my back when I was scared, or when I wanted to give up. We danced when we could and meditated like we should. Years later, we may not hang as much as I’d like, but I can tell you this man is just a light in my life. I didn’t know but now I can vouch for the fact that he’s also a hell of an actor. Holy shit! I am so excited to work with him.” (Also Read: 'Teri Mitti' Fame B Praak Shares Glimpses Of His 3-Month-Old Son's Harry Potter Themed Photoshoot)
Calling Rithvik an incredible man, Monica concluded her note with “We almost died together when we first met, and now we are making art together and I’m so excited to share it with the world at some point..... but for now, I can say, just being around someone you love.... doing what you love.... is a gift I don’t wanna take for granted. @rithvik_d - they don’t make em like you very often. You’re an incredible man and a brilliant artist. Big up. Thanks for fighting for me. I love you.” As Monica’s post was applauded by many, it was Rithvik’s comment that was unmissable as he wrote, “You are so kind and so full of love mon... that I don’t even know where to begin, and I don’t want this to sound like a mutual admiration club, but know that I’ve got your back...and I love you!! Can’t wait to see you!!”
